Just after I put yesterday's post up, the rain and wind combined and...power outtage! We don't get them here very often, but every so often the wet west coast weather conspires to remind us that Nature is in charge, not us.

Catching up on all your posts last week & caught your newest as I was ready to move on. I was curious which part of Canada you live in. My mom's family is from Manitoba, but I was born in Montana. We don't get many power outages here in southern Idaho, but we lived in Orlando for 16 years, its just a part of life there. You never do a bad outfit and you continue to inspire me. I guess by now you've figured I'm pretty chatty, I am...

Sheila, 40 years ago I lived in Seattle for 2 years and took the ferry to Victoria, a very lovely city. I changed my user name to oopsgirl51. I was born in 51 in Havre. You are so kind to answer. Thanks.

Oh gosh being trapped in an elevator would not be fun.Fortunately your neighbour was rescued quickly so is probably not too traumatized.We didn't lose power but most everyone else we spoke to that lives near us did...you included.Thank goodness we have candles.

Before reading your post, I thought you would have had a terrible fire! But so it wasn't really dangerous! We had a huge power breakout last week in Munich, and I heard of many people that were stuck in the subway or anything else, I'm so happy that I was still having breakfast at home - and for getting stuck reasons I don't take the elevator if it's not really necessary... Apart from all that, I really love your cardigan, the embellishments are so beautiful!

I despise elevators for that reason exactly! Oddly, where I worked in Regina, we ONLY had access to elevators, no stairs! The place I worked before that, my boss would always take the elevator to go up one floor, and the stairs to come down, because she said it was unnatural to fight gravity. It was bizarre!
